Pembine was a rough and tumble town in it's earlier years as some of these
newspaper clippings represent. There were many taverns and many lumberjacks looking
for a good time. This created a volatile environment of Alcohol, guns, knives and
axes; keeping the peace was a challenge. |

Two thugs attempted to hold up William Imlay a giant Woodsman near Marinette.
Imlay fought and one of the bandits laid his cheek open with a razor. Constable Stoveken
"Happened Along" shot one of the men through the hip and both were then captured
and lodged in jail at Marinette. |

 The paper mentions a date of 1918. As John Stoveken died in January
of 1915, We know this was taken in 1914 or before. Estimated 1912.
